2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer Complaint Log

SPEEDOMETER FAILED WAS TOLD IT WAS OVER SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS TO REPAIR SERVICE REPAIRMAN AT MY LOCAL DEALER SAYS THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING WITH BOTH THE TRAILBLAZERS BUT ALSO WITH THE TAHOE MODEL. *TR

BOUGHT A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER FROM A USED CAR DEALERSHIP IN 04/09 AND NOTICED A SMALL PUDDLE OF FLUID ON THE DRIVEWAY. I DID SOME QUICK SEARCHING AND FOUND THAT DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE OIL FILTER SOME OIL COULD PUDDLE UP ON THE "SKID PLATE" UNDER THE TRUCK WHICH CAN DRIP FOR A FEW DAYS AFTER SO I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT. LUCKILY I CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AFTER MY WIFE MENTIONED THE TRUCK WAS SHIFTING FUNNY. IT WAS 2 QTS LOW AND AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I NOTICED THE TRANSMISSION COOLING LINES ARE SEVERELY CORRODED AND LEAKING. I DID SOME SEARCHING AND NOTICED A TSB FOR THE ISSUE - PIT-4722. CHEVY SHOULD ISSUE A NOTICE TO THE USERS OF THESE VEHICLES AND OFFER TO REPLACE. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ALL THE OTHER VEHICLES BUT THE TRANSMISSIONS COOLING LINE IS LEAKING RIGHT NEXT TO THE TRAILBLAZERS EXHAUST AND I'M GUESSING THAT IS NOT A VERY SAFE SITUATION. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE IS THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE. IN 2006, THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED ACCORDING TO A RECALL FOR THE BRAKE LIGHT SENSOR. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, BOTH OF THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED. SHE TOOK HER VEHICLE TO THE DEALER IN JULY OF 2007 AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHT SENSOR BOARD WAS FRIED. SINCE THE REPAIR WAS PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED IN 2006, THE DEALER WILL NOT REPAIR IT AGAIN. THE CONTACT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

HAVE OWNED A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER FOR THREE YEARS WHEN I PURCHASED IT MADE A LOAD FAN NOISE BUT IT WENT AWAY AFTER A FEW FEET NOW IT MAKES THE SOUND ALL THE TIME CHEVY NEEDS TO CALL THEM BACK BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED WHEN THE FAN EXPLODES IT WILL HAPPEN THE FAN IS PLASTIC AND CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH RPMS CHEVY YOU SHOULD DO THIS BEFORE YOU HAVE A LAW SUIT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND RADIO LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE STILL OPERATED NORMALLY WITHOUT INTERIOR LIGHTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER. GMC STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 03V096000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:INTERIOR/UNDER DASH), ALTHOUGH THE FAILURES WERE IDENTICAL. THE CONTACT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT HIS RESIDENCE AND HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 79,000. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE FOUR-WHEEL SHIFT KNOB ON THE DASH FLASHED FROM ALL-WHEEL, FOUR-WHEEL TO LOW-WHEEL DRIVE WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ANY RATE OF SPEED. UPDATED 05/06/09.*JB

THE FAN CLUTCH ON MY 2002 TRAILBLAZER HAVE BEEN ACTING UP AND NOT WORKING PROPERLY FOR QUITE A WHILE. FROM THE INITIAL STARTUP OF THE VEHICLE , UP TO TRAVELING SPEED OF 55 MPH THE LOAD JET NOISE, FAN CLUTCH REVVING CAN BE HEARD. THE REVVING UP, JET NOISE, AND LACK OF POWER FROM THE ENGINE AND NO ACCELERATION WHEN NEEDED. SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON SEVERAL TIME P0495. SEEMS AS THOUGH THE PROBLEM HAS SLOWLY GOT WORSE OVER THE PAST YEAR. FINALLY HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW FAN CLUTCH FROM AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS AND REPLACE THE PART. A SIMPLE 5 MINUTES SEARCH OF THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET SHOWED A VERY EYE OPENING RESPONSE FROM SEVERAL HUNDRED OTHER OWNERS OF SIMILAR TRAILBLAZERS WITH SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THE FAN CLUTCH WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE AND THE OLD FAN CLUTCH IS STILL AVAILABLE IF ANYONE NEEDS TO SEE IT. THE LOUD ENGINE REVVING FAN NOISE/LIKE JET ENGINE, USED TO HAPPEN EVERY FEW DAYS, BUT THEN IT BECAME A DAILY PROBLEM , HENCE THE CONCERN TO REPLACE THE PART. BOUGHT THE VEHICLE TWO YEARS AGO WITH 36000 MILES ON IT AND IT HAS 56000 MILES ON IT NOW. FOR YOUR INFORMATION OF THE OTHER HUNDREDS OF OWNERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEM, HERE IS THE LINK. HTTP://WWW.CARSURVEY.ORG/REVIEWS/CHEVROLET/TRAILBLAZER/R64655/COMMENTS/. *TR

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT, WHERE I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 35 MPH. AN AGGRESSIVE DRIVER SPEED AROUND ME AND CUT ME OFF AND THAN STOMPED ON THIS BRAKES IN FRONT OF ME. DUE TO THAT I SWERVED TO MISS HIM CLIPPING HIS RIGHT BACK LIGHT AD BUMPER WITH MY LEFT HEADLIGHT AND BUMPER. AS I WAS SWERVING I HIT A TREE JUST ABOUT DEAD ON WITH MY AR. THE MAJORITY OF THE IMPACT OCCURRED JUST ABOUT 6 INCHES TO THE LEFT (IF LOOKING AT THE CAR) OF THE CENTER OF THE FRONT OF THE CAR. I HIT THE TREE AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 28-30 MPH. AFTER INITIAL IMPACT I WAS RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL DUE TO UNCONSCIOUS AND FACIAL CONTUSIONS. DURING THE FIRST MOMENTS AFTER THE ACCIDENT, ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS OFFICERS, EMTS AND WITNESSES SAID WAS "I CAN'T BELIEVE THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T GO OFF". IN THE RECENT DAYS AFTER THE ACCIDENT I HAVE HAD SEVERAL MECHANICS AND SUCH APPRAISE THE CAR, THE ONE COMMON THEME THEY ALL SHARE IS THAT THEY SUSPECT THERE MIGHT NOT BE AN AIRBAG WHERE IT BELONGS. OR THE LACK THERE OF. *TR

2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER - WE HAD THE TRANSMISSION IN OUR 2002 TRAILBLAZER REPLACED IN SEPT OF 2006 BECAUSE THE SUN GEAR FAILED AND RUINED THE TRANSMISSION. THIS TRUCK HAS NOT TOWED ANYTHING. NOW 35000 MILES LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SECOND TRANSMISSION THAT HAD TO GO INTO THIS SUV WITH THE TOWING PACKAGE. WE DON'T TOW ANYTHING AND YET THE TRANSMISSION FAILS FROM HIGHWAY DRIVEN MILES. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY SOME TYPE OF DEFECT AFTER RESEARCHING THE INTERNET, I HAVE FOUND MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM TIRED OF WASTING HARD EARNED MONEY TO PAY FOR A MANUFACTURES FAULTY PARTS. THEY EVEN HAVE A SERVICE BULLETIN STATING A POTENTIAL PROBLEM WITH THE PART AND DON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I AM TIRED OF PAYING 2200.00 + TO CORRECT THEIR PROBLEMS. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AGAIN A FEW DAYS AGO, MY WIFE WAS NEARLY RUN INTO BY THE CAR BEHIND HER. I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING LEGAL ACTION. *TR

I OWN A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER AND I HAVE HAD MY HEADLIGHTS CHECKED BECAUSE NOT ALWAYS BUT ONCE IN A WHILE THEY JUST COMPLETELY TURN OFF SOMETIMES AT NIGHT TIME WHILE DRIVING. I TOOK IT IN TO A REPAIR SHOP AND NOTHING WAS FOUND WRONG WITH IT BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES I HAVE TO HAVE HEADLIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS CHANGED LIKE EVERY MONTH OR SO MY TRUCK ONE DAY DIDN'T TURN ON COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT SAT IN MY GARAGE FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS AND EVERYDAY I WOULD TRY TO TURN IT ON BUT NOTHING AFTER THE 3RD DAY WENT AND TRIED AGAIN IT CAME ON WITHOUT A PROBLEM AND IT'S BEEN OKAY JUST THE PROBLEM WITH MY HEADLIGHTS STILL GOING OFF AT NIGHT ONCE IN A WHILE. I KNOW 2 OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS AND HAVE HAD KIND OF THE SAME PROBLEMS. I BELIEVE THAT THEIR IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS. *TR

CHEVY TRAILBLAZER02 MODEL, ABOUT 40K MILES IN 2005 THE CAR DIED ON US 2 TIMES AND WE COULDN'T FIND OUT WHAT WAS THE REASON WE HAD TO ASK FOR JUMP AND IT KEPT GOING ON NORMAL, THEN SUDDENLY AFTER ABOUT A COUPLE MONTH I SAW THAT THE BATTERY WAS LEAKING, AND DAMAGED SOME A/C PIPE LINES UNDER THE BATTERY, HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AND WASH AND CLEAN ALL UNDER AND AROUND THE BATTERY TO REMOVE THE ACID STUFF. AFTER THAT THE TAILGATE WHERE THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IS, STARTED MAKING NOISES EVERYTIME I OPENED IT, WHEN CHECKED I FOUND THAT THE PART WHERE THE REAR WINDOW IS AFFIXED TO THE TAIL GATE WHERE BROKE AND THE ESCREWS ARE HANGING BY IT SELF WHICH MADE THE REAR WINDOW LOOSE AND STANDING OUT, AND ABOUT A WEEK AGO NOW THAT I HAVE 61K MILES IN 2009 THE REAR BRAKE LIGHT WENT OFF, TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME ABOUT THE RECALL ON THOSE LIGHTS AND SO THEY FIXED IT, WHICH WHEN I PICKED UP THE SUV AND DROVE IT WITH THE FAMILY ABOUT 45 MILES TRIP WHEN SUDDENLY IT STARTED BLOWING AIR AND MAKING A STRONG AND DEEP NOISE SOUNDED LIKE A BUS OR 18 WHEELER PASSING BY, WHICH MADE US CANCEL THE TRIP AND GO BACK TO DEALER TO FIND OUT WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MY CAR, TAKE A GUESS, I WAS TOLD THAT IT'S COMMON ON THOSE CHEVY'S THE FAN CLUTCH TO GO OUT AND THAT IT REALLY LASTED LONG ON MY CAR AND YES IT'S SOMETHING NORMAL THAT HAPPENS, BUT IT COST ME $950.00 TO REPAIR IT YEAH SURE VERY NORMAL, IT SEEMS LIKE GM PARTS AND LABORS NOW ARE COSTING JUST AS THE GERMAN CARS. SHOULDN'T GM MAKE ALL THOSE ISSUES RECALL IF IT IS KNOWN THAT ARE DEFECTIVE AND ARE HAPPENING TO MOST OF THE CARS . *TR

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HAD TO STOP SUDDENLY. WHEN THE SEAT BROKE AND WENT TO THE FLOOR ON ONE SIDE. PULLED OVER AND INVESTIGATED AND THE WELD ON THE ARM OF THE SEAT CONTROL WAS IMPROPERLY WELDED. THE WELD ON THE ARM ITS SELF WAS HALF ON THE PLATE AND POPPED LOOSE. IF HAD BEEN GOING AROUND A CURVE WHEN THE SEAT BROKE WOULD PROBABLY CAUSED A WRECK. GOING TO HAVE TO BUY A NEW SEAT AND TRADE THE VEHICLE OFF POSSIBLY. AFRAID MORE WELDS COULD BE MISSING OR NOT DONE PROPERLY. *TR

THE PASSENGER-SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT SOCKET CAUGHT FIRE AND MELTED. THIS SAME SOCKET AND BULB WERE REPLACED DUE TO MELTED CONTACTS ONLY 4 MONTHS AGO. I WAS AWARE OF THE CURRENT SITUATION AS THERE WAS A STRONG BURNT ODOR INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE FUSE FOR THE HEADLIGHT DID NOT BLOW IN EITHER SITUATION. *TR

THE 2002 TRAILBLAZER HAD A RECALL ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR AND THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE THAT WATER INSIDE THE MOTOR COULD CAUSE. THE CORRECTION WAS PERFORMED BY PLUGGING A HOLE IN THE MOTOR. MY VEHICLE WAS ALSO UNDER A GMPP EXTENDED WARRANTY. SHORTLY LATER, THE WIPERS BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION WHILE ON INTERMITTENT. THEY STUTTER AND SOMETIMES STOP IN MID STROKE, UNLESS ON HIGH SPEED. I RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS THAT WERE CAUSED BY WATER DAMAGE THAT HAD OCCURRED. I INQUIRED AT THE DEALER ABOUT CORRECTING AND THEY STATED THAT SINCE THE RECALL HAD BEEN PERFORMED, THEY COULD REPAIR THE UNIT ONLY IF I PAID FOR THE REPAIRS. THE ESTIMATED COST WAS AROUND $350. ADDITIONAL INTERNET RESEARCH INDICATES NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE BEEN CORRECTED BY OPENING THE WIPER MOTOR AND CLEANING THE CONTACTS - A RESULT OF WATER DAMAGE, OBVIOUSLY CAUSED EVEN THOUGH THE RECALL. I BELIEVE CHEVROLET SHOULD RECALL THIS VEHICLE AND REPLACE THE WIPER MOTOR RATHER THAN PLUG THE HOLE AS THEY DID ORIGINALLY. I ALSO BELIEVE CHEVROLET KNEW THEIR ORIGINAL RECALL (PLUGGING THE HOLE) WOULD NOT LAST AND MOTORS WOULD FAIL AT A LATER TIME. UPDATED 04/12/10

THERE WAS A SMELL OF GAS, SO I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AFTER THEY SAID IT SHOULD BE COVERED. THEY FOUND ROTTED FUEL MODULE AND HOSES, REMOVED FUEL TANK FOUND FUEL SENDING UNIT ROTTED,LINES AND HOSES..REPLACED SENDING UNIT LINES AND HOSES. MDLE KIT 3.107 PART# 19206122 ..PIPE 3.163 PART#15174333...PIPE 3.163 PART#15015511...SENSOR 3.107 PART#16238399.. NOW TELL ME IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED IF I BROUGHT IT IN EARLIER, I ONLY JUST GOT THE NOTICE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT , SO HOW COULD I HAVE BROUGHT IT IN EARLIER. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT LOCKED AND IT WOULD NOT RELEASE REGARDLESS OF WEATHER THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE PASSENGER TO RELEASE THE SEAT BELT WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE.

FRONT DIFFERENTIAL. *TR

THE COOLING FAN CLUTCH IN MY 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER HAS GONE BAD. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHER REPORTS ABOUT THIS PART FAILING ON THESE VEHICLES. CAUSES DECREASED POWER, INCREASED RPM'S, AND MAY CAUSE ENGINE DESTRUCTION. *TR

2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT WILL COME ON ALONG WITH THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN 40 MPH. SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT GO MORE THAN 20 AND 10 MPH. I'VE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY CLEANED THE THROTTLE AND CHANGED SOME FILTERS AND 2 DAYS LATER....THE SAME LIGHTS COME ON AND THE ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED. THE DEALER DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS SO THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO DO THIS AND HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CONTROL ARMS IN 2001 THAT AFFECTED THE 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. I PURCHASED MY TRAILBLAZER IN 2002 SO I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY RECALL INFORMATION. MY CONTROL ARMS NEED TO BE REPLACED AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY MY VEHICLE ISN'T COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. *TR

1. BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. HEARD A LOUD POP. 2. REVERSE NO LONGER WORKS, CANT BACK OUT OF PARKING SPACES. WILL NOT SHIFT INTO 2ND OR 4TH GEAR. TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. 3. TRANSMISSION MUST BE REBUILT OR NEW TRANSMISSION INSTALLED. COSTS BETWEEN 1500 AND 3000 DOLLARS. CAR ONLY HAS 67,000 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT FAIL THIS QUICKLY. *TR

WELL SERVICED 90K MILES. TRAVELING AT 35MPH PUSHED BREAKS ALL THE WAY DOWN (FRACTURING RIGHT ANKLE) SLOWED ME DOWN BUT FAILED TO STOP AT UPCOMING RED LIGHT. STRUCK MEDIUM SIZE VEHICLE INJURING OTHER DRIVER AND CAUSING CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. CHEVY DEALER COLLISION/SERVICE CENTER ESTIMATED $8K IN REPAIRS. IN OTHER WORDS IT COSTS MORE TO REPAIR IT THAN WHAT THE VEHICLE IS WORTH. ALSO:"MASTER CYLINDER IS BAD" AND AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. CHEVY TECH. SAID "IMPACT WAS NOT BIG ENOUGH" . AFTER READING SOME EIGHT OTHER COMPLAINTS VERY SIMILAR TO THIS . I AM CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THIS OR GETTING INTO ANOTHER ONE. IS THERE NOT A BREAK LIGHT SERVICE SENSOR THAT I SHOULD HAVE NOTED.? SERVICE MANUAL FOR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SAYS TO CHECK FRONT AND REAR AXLE FLUID AND ADD FLUID AS NEEDED EVERY 5K TO 7K MILES AFTER 67.5K MILES. *TR

I HAVE 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER THAT TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 113,000 MILES. REBUILT AT A COST OF $2,000 BY DEALER. ALSO TRANSFER CASE ELECTRONIC MODULATOR WENT OUT AND REPLACED @ $800 BY SAME DEALER. ALSO REPLACED THE FAN CLUTCH AT SAME DEALER FOR $800. WITHIN 1 WEEK I HAVE SPENT $3,600. I HAVE OWNED 6 NEW GM PRODUCTS AND HAVE NEVER REPLACED THIS MUCH EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT. I KNOW THE TRANSMISSION IS A MAJOR ISSUE AND FELT GM OR THE DEALER SHOULD HELP ON THE REPAIR. DEALER REFUSED AND WOULD NOT REQUEST GM'S HELP. THE OTHER ITEMS I AM SURE ARE RELATED OR REPLACED AT A VERY HIGH RATE. EVIDENCE OF THESE REPAIRS ARE ALL OVER THE INTERNET. MY TRAILBLAZER IS DRIVEN BY MY WIFE TO WORK AND THEY ARE ALL ROAD MILES. I DID NOT EXPECT TO PAY FOR ALL COSTS BUT THEY COULD HAVE WORKED WITH ME. I PAID $25,000 FOR THIS VEHICLE AND EXPECTED A LOT MORE. GM DOES NOT DESERVE A BAIL OUT. THEY NEED A GOOD ASS KICKING FOR THE DUMB ASSES THAT TRIED TO SUPPORT THEM ALL THESE YEARS BY BUYING THEIR PRODUCT. IF THERE IS HELP FROM ALL THE BAIL OUT MONEY THEY GET INCLUDE MY $3,600. I WOULD NOT EXPECT A FREE REPAIR BUT WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THERE ARE THEY SHOULD BE MADE TO REPAIR OR REIMBURSE ON SOME KIND OF SCALE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE CONTACT STRUCK A PATCH OF ICE AND THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A LIGHT POLE. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 56,000.

THE ELECTRONIC SENSORS AND KEY FOB TO OPEN AND LOCK THE VEHICLE DO NOT WORK, CAUSING SERIOUS PROBLEMS BECAUSE THE REAR TAILGATE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK MANUALLY AND ALL OF THE EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT IS STORED UNDER THE CARPET IN THE TAIL SECTION. THIS PROBLEM STARTED IN COLD WEATHER AND EVEN REPLACING THE BATTERIES IN THE KEY FOB DIDN'T WORK. THIS IS SERIOUS IN COLD WEATHER FOR EMERGENCIES IE, CABLES TO JUMP THE CAR AND FLARES ARE STORED IN THE BACK OF VEHICLE. *TR

FRONT END PROBLEMS , 4 WHEEL LOW COMES ON AT ANYTIME . PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEMS WITH THIS 2002 CHEVY TRAIL BLAZER .. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY FOB SENSOR FAILED TO OPEN THE POWER DOORS. THIS PRESENTS A HAZARD BECAUSE THERE IS NO MANUAL KEY ENTRY FOR THE DOORS.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,200 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 39,620. UPDATED 03/09/09. *LJ THE REAR WIPER WAS INOPERTIVE. UPDATED 03/12/09. *JB

ON 11/14/07 I PURCHASED A "02 TRAILBLAZER FROM SALISBURY CHEVROLET, IN SCOTIA, NY. ON DECEMBER 21, 2007 I HAD THE TRANSFER SWITCH REPLACED BECAUSE THE 4WD WOULD RANDOMLY SWITCH FROM 2WD TO 4LO OR AWD. I NEVER HAD TO USE THE 4WD LAST WINTER, SNOW FALLS WEREN'T THAT BAD. WENT TO SWITCH IT ON THIS YEAR ON 12/19 AND COME TO FIND OUT THAT MY 4WD WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. TOOK IT THE DEALER AND IT WILL COST ME $600 TO REPAIR. THE "SERVICE 4WD" LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. *TR

I RECEIVED A LETTER FOR MY 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER...ON CORROSION AREAS LISTED IN OHIO ON THE FUEL TANK MODULAR RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY. IT DOES STATE 10 YEARS TO 120,000 MILES....I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AT OVER 130,000 MILES AND THEY SENT ME THIS LETTER.....THEY WILL NOT HELP ME FIX IT....IS THERE ANYTHING THAT I CAN DO? IT DOES LEAK GAS! *TR

WHEN I TOUCH THE BUTTONS ON MY RADIO THEY GET VERY VERY HOT. THEIR IS A LONG LIST OF THINGS WRONG WITH THIS 2002 CHEVY TRAIL BLAZER. BUT WHEN I CONTACTED CHEVY THEY TOLD MY THAT MY SUV IS NOT ONE OF THE ONES AFFECTED? THEIR IS A NOISE IN THE FRONT AND THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TRUCK SEEMS LOWER, LIKE A SHOCK IS BROKEN? THE REAR WINDSHIELD WIPER NEVER WORKED. THE AIR CONDITIONING ONLY WORK ON THE HIGHEST LEVEL ( 5 ). THE REAR TAILGATE NEVER LOCKS WHEN YOU HIT THE POWER LOCKS. THE TAPE PLAYER STARTS ON ITS OWN, AND WILL BLOW A FUSE CAUSING AN ELECTRICAL SMELL. THE DAY I BOUGHT THE 2002 CHEVY TRAIL BLAZER THE HEAD GASKET BLEW AND THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED IT WITH A USED HEAD GASKET. THIS SUV HAS ALOT OF ISSUES AND IS GETTING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE TRIED TO HAVE CHEVROLET ADDRESS THESE ISSUES BUT THEY WONT FIX ANYTHING WITHOUT ME PAYING FOR THEM. I AM ON A TIGHT BUDGET, AND I HAVE SEEN ALOT OF RECALLS WITH THESE ISSUES THAT I HAVE DESCRIBED. SHOULDN'T THEY FIX THESE THINGS FREE OF CHARGE? PLEASE HELP! *TR

WAS PULLING INTO WORK PARKING LOT WHEN A HEARD A QUICK BANG FOLLOWED BY SCREECHING NOISE. I TRIED PARKING BUT COULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE. FORWARD GEARS APPEAR TO WORK FINE BUT REVERSE IS COMPLETELY GONE. MY 2002 TRAILBLAZER HAS UNDER 70,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN MAINTAINED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. AFTER READING SOME OF THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE, I SUSPECT THAT ONCE I TAKE IT FOR REPAIR I WILL BE TOLD IT IS THE SUN SHELL AND CORRESPONDING GEARS. I'M GLAD I WASN'T IN A DANGEROUS POSITION WHEN THE TRANNY WENT OUT BUT I COMPLETELY AGREE THAT THE SUN SHELL ISSUE IN THESE TRAILBLAZERS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND IT'S SICKENING THAT AS OF TODAY A RECALL TO CORRECT THE ISSUE IS NOT OUT THERE! I SUPPOSE IT TAKES A FEW TRAGEDIES FOR SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BUT I'M HOPING THAT'S NOT THE CASE THIS TIME. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER WITH 80,000 MILES ON IT. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT I HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION SERVICED PER THE MANUFACTURES RECOMMENDATIONS. MY DEALERSHIP HAS RECORD OF THIS. WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE TRANSMISSION UP UNTIL 26 NOV 2008. WITHOUT WARNING THE TRANSMISSION MADE A LOUD BANG AND I LOST OVERDRIVE. I ALSO LOST REVERSE GEAR AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE TO A PARKING LOT. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP (AAMCO) IS CHARGING ME 2095.00 TO REBUILD IT. THIS INCLUDES A NEW TORQUE CONVERTER. THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 80,000 MILES ON IT. GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED AS IT SEEMS THERE IS A LONG LIST OF FOLKS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS ME. I WOULD LIKE SOME MONETARY COMPENSATION TO HELP REPAIR THIS. THOUGHT YOU GUYS MIGHT LIKE TO KNOW. *TR

1. TRANSFER CASE SEIZED - 4WD FAILURE WHILE DRIVING 2. FAN CLUTCH FAILURE - VEHICLE DOES NOT OPERATE PROPERLY IN A NUMBER OF WAYS. *TR

I DROVE TO THE AIRPORT I GOT THERE EARLY AND MY SON WAS SLEEPING SO MY COUSIN AND I DECIDED TO TAKE A LITTLE NAP AS WELL. IT WAS THANKSGIVING WEEK. IT WAS VERY COLD OUTSIDE SO WE STARTED THE CAR TO WARM IT UP AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR, THEN MY SON WOKE UP SO WE DECIDED TO START GETTING EVERYTHING READY TO GET ON THE SHUTTLE. REMEMBER WE ARE PARKED IN A PARKING LOT AND HAVE NOT MOVED FOR OVER AN HOUR. WE GOT MY SON OUT OF HIS SEAT BROUGHT HIM TO THE FRONT SEAT WITH US, I WAS GETTING HIS DIAPER BAG READY AND MY COUSIN WAS CHANGING HIS DIAPER AND PUTTING HIS SHOES ON FOR ME. WHEN SHE WAS DONE MY SON WANTED ME AND AS SOON AS HE GOT TO THE MIDDLE CONSOLE, OUT OF NO WHERE THE FRONT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, ON BOTH SIDES DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDE! LUCKILY NONE OF US WERE HURT AND MY SON WAS WHERE HE WAS OR HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED HE WAS ONLY 18 MONTHS AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT! AS SOON AS I GOT HOME I CALLED GENERAL MOTORS MYSELF AND REPORTED THE INCIDENT AND THEY MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH ME TO INVESTIGATE WHAT COULD HAVE MADE THIS HAPPEN. THEY SAID THEY FOUND NOTHING, SO OBVIOUSLY THERE WAS A DEFAULT SOMEWHERE. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET HELP FOR MONTHS NOW AND I AM GETTING NO WHERE. I COULD TRADE IT IN BUT WITHOUT AIRBAGS I AM LOSING A COUPLE THOUSAND DOLLARS. BOTH SIDES ARE STILL ALL OPEN AND NOT FIXED I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX THEM, I DO NOT AND DID NOT WANT TO SUE, I WOULD JUST BE HAPPY WITH A TRADE IN SO I CAN HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE FOR MY FAMILY AND MYSELF. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE ENGINE REVVED AND WOULD NOT CHANGE GEARS. THE CONTACT ARRIVED HOME AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. WHEN HE RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, IT WOULD ONLY DRIVE FORWARD AND NOT IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOP AND THEY OPENED THE TRANSMISSION. THEY DISCOVERED SCRAPS OF METAL WHERE THE GEAR SHIFT WAS SHREDDED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE SUN SHELL WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS NEEDED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

TRANSMISSION ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTING NOT GOING INTO GEAR AND THERE WAS A WHINING SOUND. THE REVERSE WENT OUT AND IT SKIPS FROM 1ST GEAR TO 3RD. IT WILL COST ABOUT 1300 TO REPAIR BUT I HAVE NOT DONE IT YET, AS I CANNOT AFFORD IT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE FOR MANY TRAILBLAZERS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SUN SHELL PART AND REALLY SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE ELECTRICAL CONTROL MODULE IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS DEFECTIVE AND MUST BE REPROGRAMMED. THE MIRRORS, LOCKS, AND SEATS MUST BE READJUSTED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. ON ONE OCCASION, THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW WOULD NOT ROLL UP.

I HAVE HAD TO ALREADY REPLACE THE COIL PACK IN MY 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER LS A FEW MONTHS AGO AND NOT IT SEEMS THAT IT OR ANOTHER ON IS GONE BAD AGAIN THE TRUCK IS SPUTTERING, LOSE OF POWER, NO SPEED. I LOVE THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE ALREADY MADE ON COMPLAINT ABOUT IT I ALSO KNOW OF SEVERAL OTHERS THAT HAVE THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE ALSO REPORTED PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME THING. CHEVY NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND ATTEMPT TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 20MPH AFTER A TURN AND I HEARD A LOUD CLUNK THEN FOLLOWED A LOUD WINDING NOISE. I COULD NOT GO MORE THAN 25MPH SO I SLOWLY MADE IT TO MY HOME. ONCE I WAS IN PARK I TRIED TO GO IN REVERSE AND FOUND THAT I HAD LOST IT. I ALSO LOST 2ND AND 4TH. I GOT AN ESTIMATE OF $1485.00 SO I HAD TO PARK IT UNTIL I COULD SAVE THE MONEY UP IN THESE HARD TIMES. I TOOK IT IN TO MY LOCAL TRANSMISSION PLACE AND THEY TOLD ME THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 02 GM TRANSMISSIONS. IF THIS IS SO COMMON AND I'M READING ALL THESE COMPLAINTS WHY DO I NOT SEE ANY RECALL.... SOMEONE CAN GET SERIOUSLY HURT ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE ARE NO WARNING SIGNS. I WOULD HOPE TO GET SOME SORT OF MONETARY COMPENSATION FOR WHAT I HAD TO PAY OUT, ESPECIALLY WITH GM KNOWING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. THIS REALLY CONCERNS ME WITH GM, THEY NEED TO BE ON THE BALL FOR THEIR CONSUMERS SAFETY. *TR

MY "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT CAME ON TODAY AND I BROUGHT IT IN TO BE PUT ON THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. IT IS READING ERROR CODE PO495 COOLING FAN CIRCUIT ERROR. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE I FOUND THAT IT IS GENERALLY A PROBLEM WITH A FAULTY FAN CLUTCH. AND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR MY VEHICLE (2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER). THE SITE I VISITED HAD 279 PAGES OF COMMENTS ON THIS PROBLEM! STATEMENTS MADE WERE THAT IF THE FAN CLUTCH MALFUNCTIONS IT CAN "EXPLODE" CAUSING MORE DAMAGE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE VEHICLE SWAYED ACROSS THE ROAD AND ACROSS AN EMBANKMENT. DURING THE MASSIVE ROLLOVER CRASH, THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED SEVERE INJURIES. THE POLICE AND AMBULANCE WERE CALLED TO THE SCENE AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CALLED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY BEING INSPECTED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED OF THE SAFETY RISK INVOLVED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 110,000.

MY HEADLIGHT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE VEHICLE IS OUT. I CAN NOT JUST REPLACE THE BULB BECAUSE MY WIRES THAT CONNECT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY TO THE WIRING SYSTEM IS BURNT WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS TRIED TO CATCH FIRE. NOW MY WHOLE LIGHTING SYSTEM IS FLASHING AND WHEN YOU DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD THE HEADLIGHTS FLASH AND DIM DOWN. *TR

I HAD 37000 MILES ON MY SUV WHEN MY SUNSHIELD WENT OUT LUCKILY IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEN AT 75,000, IT WENT OUT AGAIN, I HAD TO PAY FOR HALF THE COST. NOW AT 134,000 MILES MY TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT. I HAVE BEEN ROUND AND ROUND WITH THE GM PEOPLE. THEY DO NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING. I HAVE HAD IT REBUILT TWICE AND IT KEEPS GOING OUT. I KEEP TELLING THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE IS SOMETHING CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO KEEP GOING OUT BUT THEY DON'T WANT TO LISTEN AND WANT TO PUT A BRAND NEW ONE IN. I THINK GM SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING I HAVE SPEND SO FAR AND ALSO I WILL NOT EVER BY A GM VEHICLE AGAIN. I WILL BUY FOREIGN. I AM STILL OUT OF COMMISSION. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT WAS UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE TRYING TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE, BUT WAS UNABLE TO RAISE HIS VEHICLE TO THE PROPER LEVEL. HE BELIEVES THE FAILURE TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT BECAUSE THE TIRE IS THE ORIGINAL TIRE THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT BELIEVES THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE VEHICLE TO BE RAISED TO A PROPER LEVEL TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 28,400. REMAILED 11/17/08. *LJ

AS I WAS DRIVING UP A HILL IN OHIO, MY CAR TRIED TO DOWNSHIFT AND MADE A GRINDING SOUND AND I TEMPORARILY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE CAUSING ME TO SWERVE OFF OF THE ROAD. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AND WHEN I REGAINED CONTROL, THE CAR NO LONGER SHIFTED CORRECTLY. APPARENTLY MY SUNSHELL BROKE WHICH I GUESS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CARS THAT HAVE THIS SUNSHELL IN THEM. IT ENDED UP COSTING $2500 TO FIX MY VEHICLE BECAUSE GM USES INFERIOR CAR PARTS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND A RECALL SHOULD BE INITIATED. *TR

DRIVING ALONG AND HEAR A THUMP, RPM'S REV UP. TRANSMISSION NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY. THEN, WHEN I TRY TO PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE, THERE IS NO REVERSE! THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THIS VEHICLE. I'VE READ THAT THIS HAPPENED TO NUMEROUS PEOPLE, AND IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SUNSHELL PART OF THE TRANSMISSION. CHEVY NEEDS TO RECALL THIS AS IT IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. IN DECEMBER OF 2007, THE HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED BURNT PLASTIC AND HE REPLACED THE SOCKET AND THE BULBS. ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2008, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AS ELECTRICAL; HOWEVER, THEY COULD NOT LOCATE THE FAILURE CODE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

GAS FUMES FOLLOWED BY LEAKING GAS FUEL MODULE. *TR

I APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT. AS I STOPPED, THE WHOLE CAR SHUT DOWN. I TURNED THE IGNITION "OFF", PUT THE CAR IN "PARK", AND TURNED THE "IGNITION SWITCH" TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT DID START. A COUPLE DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO MY DEALER ON SEPT. 15 2008.THEY ASKED IF I HAD A LOT OF STUFF HANGING ON THE KEY RING, I DID NOT. THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH. ON JAN. 21, 2011 , I WAS DRIVING, AND, AFTER STOPPING, THE CAR WAS RUNNING BUT WOULD NOT ENGAGE (MOVE). HAD THE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THEY AGAIN REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH AND ANOTHER SWITCH. ON FEB. 11, 2011, I WAS AT A "DRIVE-UP" WINDOW, MY CAR JUST QUIT RUNNING. I HAD TO PUSH IT OFF TO THE SIDE AND HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THIS TIME THEY AGAIN REPLACED THE "IGNITION SWITCH" ALONG WITH A TRANSFER CASE SWITCH AND A TRANSFER CASE MODULE. THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REPLACE ALL OF THEM SINCE THERE WAS NO WAY TO KNOW FOR SURE IF IT WAS STILL RELATED TO THE "IGNITION SWITCH". I FEEL ALL MY ISSUES WERE RELATE TO THE "IGNITION SWITCH", AND ALL REPAIRS SHOULD HAVE BEEN PAID BY GM.THEY NEW THEY HAD AN ISSUE, OR THE DEALER WOULD NOT HAVE ASKED ABOUT "EXCESS WEIGHT HANGING ON THE KEY FOB".. I BELIEVE THE "IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE" GOES BACK FARTHER, AND AFFECTS EVEN MORE MODELS, THAN THEY ARE CURRENTLY OWNING UP TO. I STILL HAVE ALL PAPERWORK PERTAINING TO MY REPAIRS. *TR
